Hotels near University Paris 8, Saint-Denis

The hotel is brand new, there are no building issues, other than there are mosquitoes in the rooms - even in November! - and you can't get rid of them. The rooms are quite big. The bathroom is perfectly adequate. The beds are uncomfortable, not even Ibis standard. Location is terrible. The local tram stop has been closed for months. The nearest metro is 15 minutes' walk, and even then it's a very long way from central Paris. I was almost mugged on the street near the hotel at 8.30pm, the area really isn't very safe. On checkin the towels were dirty and covered in blood. Even when refreshed they stank. Breakfast is single-use environmental-catastrophe kind of stuff. No point having compostable plates if you mix it with the plastic from the cheese. But far better just to have washable plates and cutlery in the first place. There are better options for your stay in Paris. Do choose them instead.

Booked the hotel because of its proximity to Stade de France (my 12-years old son & I were lucky to attend the Champions League final). You cannot find a better stay if you want to avoid the unbelievable chaos outside the stadium after a football match (or any highly attended event) ends. Hotel staff is really friendly. Front desk manager had hands-on on everything. The hotel general director was always present with a warm and welcoming attitude, making sure that there won’t be any problem whatsoever and everybody is happy. A BIG thank-you.

Beautiful hotel in a beautiful part of town. Expect nothing less of Novotel. Employees very attentive and welcoming. They offer brilliant advice and support when looking at booking football matches at the park de Princes for Paris Saint Germain. My room was really well equipped and a beautiful size. No issues at all throughout my stay. The area this hotel is in is very close to bars cafes restaurants and McDonald’s and KFC very good for late at night food. Be very careful when traveling around St Denis. All in all highly recommend this hotel especially for sporting accommodation. There is also brilliant safe parking near by that is reasonable priced throughout. Highly Recommended.

The hotel and room is basic but clean.No safe or fridge in room and breakfast is average with boiled eggs being the only hot food from the adjacent cafe.However , the problems start when you set foot outside for the Stade de France or plan to travel into Paris.This was the most lawless, crime ridden out of control area I have ever stayed in. Street robberies and cars parked in the hotel car park broken into in addition to police sirens all night long. If you are visiting the Stade de France be very careful on your 5 MINUTE WALK as local youths are waiting around to rob visitors

I was a bit desapointed, the room was not prepared and no blanket for the second bed. I had to request it then i got a dirty one. I had to go back to the reception to have a new clean one.

Abbiamo scelto l’albergo per la vicinanza allo Stade de France, in occasione di un concerto. Per problematiche legate ai voli ci abbiamo soggiornato 5 notti. Punti positivi: sicuramente la posizione vicino alla metropolitana (linea 13) che a poche centinaia di metri dall’albergo, con una fermata consente l’arrivo allo stade de france. In una 20ina di minuti si raggiunge il centro e con i vari interscambi si può raggiungere qualunque destinazione abbastanza agilmente e in poco tempo. L’albergo è pulito, la stanza (la nostra a 4 letti) non grandissima, arredamento moderno ma essenziale. Non c’è un armadio chiuso ma 4-5 grucce su cui appendere i giubbotti, non c’è frigo, non c’è neanche il phon (che ho letto andava chiesto ogni sera in reception- io, per evitare l’ho portato da casa). Bagno piccolo con doccia. Letto (a mio parere) comodo ma è sostanzialmente materasso su una tavola in legno. Colazione: self service continentale con dolce e salato. Caffè e cappuccino da macchinetta automatica.. di cappuccino c’è solo il nome. Lati negativi: sicuramente la posizione. Saint Denis non è esattamente un quartiere dove fa piacere passeggiare, soprattutto la sera. Periferia povera di Parigi. Intorno per mangiare non c’è granché. Non abbiamo trovato un vero e proprio supermercato (anche se ammetto non ci siamo mai allontanati troppo dall’hotel); bistrot attorno 1 (sotto l’albergo) che però ha chiuso il giovedi e fino al sabato mattina, che siamo partiti, non abbiamo visto riaperto. Il giovedì ci siamo arrangiati al “ristorante” dell’hotel a fianco: il venerdi era chiuso pure questo (ci hanno detto “il week-end chiudiamo).. altri bistrot tecnicamente presenti in zona erano tutti chiusi (ferie? Falliti? Boh). In albergo è presente un totem per ordinare “a domicilio” ma non lo abbiamo sperimentato.. il venerdì abbiamo mangiato in un improbabile bistrot gestito da un franco-algerino (?), senza insegna, senza menù, che ha acceso la cucina solo per noi. È stato ultra-gentile, non ha accettato neanche mancia, ci ha offerto creme brûlé e avrebbe voluto offrirci pure caffè.. sconto sul conto (su foglietto).. mangiato pure bene e speso metà rispetto al solito ma non ripeterei esperienza ne mi sentirei di consigliarla. In definitiva vi consiglierei l’hotel solo se consapevoli della zona e per massimo 1-2 notti per eventi allo Stade de France. Ps. Se ci capitate merita una visita la basilica di Saint Denis, 2 fermate di metro.. superato lo choc di essere finiti ancor di più in periferia estrema, con una breve passeggiata a piedi si raggiunge una splendida Basilica gotica dove riposano una 40ina di monarchi francesi..

It was such a wonderful experience to stay in H4 Hotel during my visit with my wife in Paris. It's a new hotel with a dynamic and energetic team providing excellent customer services. There's a security guard on every floor so we feel protected. They've provided fresh, healthy and delicious breakfast - you don't want to miss it.

We stayed here for a few days for the 2024 Paralympics. We got it at a good price and value for money was good. We loved the funky film-theme throughout the hotel. Staff were friendly, rooms were clean and bright; there is a good eat-as-much-as-you-need continental breakfast including DIY fresh orange juice and boiled eggs. 15-minute walk to Stade de France (straight up one road if you want to enter Stade de France via entrances S to U); 7-minutes walk to nearest Metro station (which is on line B, 15 minute ride direct to Gard du Nord and Notre Dame) ; 2-minutes walk to nearest supermarket and restaurants (on the same road as the hotel). Cheap and cheerful - perfect for our needs.

There is a large bed and two small beds in the suite, the decoration is relatively new, shower and bath are available, dry and wet separation. Sound insulation is good and comfortable. There are microwaves and refrigerators, small and full. It is a 15-minute walk to Metro Line 12. However, due to the tramp nearby, it was a bit messy.
